I’m Mr. Brightside! (1yr Anniversary)

0

One year ago, YHC showed up to NoToll as an FNG for a Mudslide beatdown on the summer tour. It was an honor to lead the 17 PAX today to celebrate an F3 trip around the sun! According to the future FNG running laps by himself around the NoToll fields, this is what went down:

Warmarama – Basketball Court

  • Welcome, disclaimers, mission statement.
  • SSH, Ukrainian Soldiers, Imperial Squat Walkers, Jazzercise, APDs, Flutter Kicks, Merkins

COP #1 – Coupon Dora

  • Partner up and grab an extra-heavy coupon YHC neatly staged during morning Broga (until it was time for the shavasana).
  • 100 Squats / 200 SSHs / 300 Flutter Kicks – Timer carries the coupon the length of the court and back.

Coupon carry to the dumpsters for storage and future pain. Mosey to the soccer pavilion for the main event!

COP #2 – “I’m Mr. Brightside” Challenge

  • YHC teased in the pre-blast that a donation to Team Brightside would be made on behalf of the PAX. Here was our challenge:
  • 20min AMRAP – One Round = $1 to Team Brightside on your behalf!
    • 2 Burpees
    • 4 Groiners
    • 8 Merkins
    • 16 SSH
    • 8 Merkins
    • 4 Groiners
    • 2 Burpees
    • Lap Around the Soccer Field
  • It was awesome to see these HIMs push themselves for a great cause! It was all gas, no brakes for 20 minutes before finishing the final round with a run back to the flag.

NMS: It is truly an honor to lead today and YHC is incredibly grateful for the men of F3RVA who have pushed me to be a better husband, father, and leader over this past year. The PAX has encouraged me in numerous workouts, challenged my spiritual development within the shield lock, carried my burdens through the long night of GTE, and rallied around my family in comfort through the loss of an unborn child. We are the cure for the male loneliness epidemic in our country and I am excited for many more years to come!
